- Abstract
-
A view of the back window of a carriage on a country, tree-lined lane, shows a woman unswaddling her screaming child with a look of concern. An obese man to her right plugs his ears with his fingers, red-faced and angry. A thinner man to her left holds his nose. Another man in a bonnet leans out the window of the carriage with a surprised look on his face. In the front is a glimpse of the whip and the arm of the coach driver as he drives the coach quickly down the lane, hurling clouds of dust behind them. A dog looks down from the roof of the coach

"The series 'Musée Grotesque' consists of at least 65 plates, made over a long period between March 1814 and August 1829. They seem all to have been designed, and in some cases etched, by Godissart de Cari, and all are placed under his name in the British Museum. The first four plates of the series, unlike the others, do not carry the heading 'Musée Grotesque' but rather 'Les Nouvellistes' and are numbered 1 to 4."--British Museum online catalogue.
